Method Modifiers

Warning

These semantics are only applicable to pthreads v2 - they have been removed in pthreads v3.

pthreads overrides the functionality of the protected and private method modifiers in order to provide functionality more suited to multi-threaded objects.
pthreads applies this functionality to all Threaded objects from creation.

Example #1 protected method example: protected methods can only be executed by one Thread at a time.
